Can you describe neutral gender? And be specific.

An object that is neither male nor female.

Pick up a garden hose and look at the ends. One is male, the other female. Now stick your finger into the female end and pull out the rubber washer. The washer is neutral. In pipe fitting, gaskets and flanges are neutral.

You’re close, but gender isn’t male female or niether. It’s masculine, feminine or niether (neuter).

In many European languages, there are neutral nouns.
